The Sununu Series: Contra Soledad O'Brien

A heated exchange over Medicare unfolded Tuesday on CNN’s Starting Point when anchor Soledad O’Brien pushed former New Hampshire Gov. John Sununu to explain how Mitt Romney’s budget plan differed from running mate Paul Ryan’s.

She asked whether the Ryan Plan was the same as the Romney Plan.

“But it isn’t! You guys keep wanting to say it and I’m telling you, it’s not,” he exploded. Sununu added later, “It’s support for the concepts that are in the Ryan Plan but Mitt Romney for six months has had on the table his package, his plan and his approach for dealing with Medicare. And if all you want to do is keep repeating the garbage that comes out of the White House, then you’ve got a problem.”
